"The Axios report continued: The collaboration marks the first major news partnership for Kalshi, as it looks to establish itself as the most authoritative source of information about the real-time probabilities of major cultural and political future events, CEO and co-founder Tarek Mansour tells Axios. As part of the deal, Kalshi prediction data will be featured on-air as a real-time data ticker. There will also be prediction market content related to politics, news, culture and weather,"
"Also making the partnership noteworthy is the fact that it puts CNN in business with Donald Trump Jr. As noted by Matthew Gertz of Media Matters, Trump Jr. announced in January 2025 that he became a strategic advisor to the company. The Kalshi team has worked hard, sued the Biden administration, and achieved the impossible feat of becoming the first legal prediction market in the US, Trump Jr. said in January. I'm excited to be part of what they're building."
CNN secured a partnership with prediction market Kalshi to integrate Kalshi's real-time prediction data into CNN programming across television, digital, and social channels. Kalshi's data will be presented on-air as a real-time data ticker and will contribute to prediction-market content covering politics, news, culture, and weather. CNN chief data analyst Harry Enten will use Kalshi in data-driven coverage. The partnership places CNN in a business relationship with Donald Trump Jr., who is a strategic advisor to Kalshi. Kalshi became the first legal prediction market in the United States following litigation against the Biden administration.
